The vampire women in Mexico have awakened from their sleep, commanded by
their master, The Evil One, to find him a bride. They choose as their
target the beautiful daughter of a local professor. To rescue his
daughter, the professor calls El Santo (Samson in some US versions), a
silver-masked wrestler for justice.

Since
Lucha Libre (Wrestling) is very popular south of the border, El Santo
(or Samson, or The Silver Masked Wrestler etc) was the master of caped
comic book heroes in Mexico back in the 60's. This movie boasts not only
the typical Santo plot: a wrestling match at the beginning, a pretty
girl being menaced by bad guys, a professor who knows how to stop the
bad guys, a second wrestling match with a concealed bad guy masquerading
as a wrestler trying to kill Santo in the ring etc., but it also has
some cool old-school Gothic style undead evil mistresses. And some
beauties they are too: Lorena Velasquez (a look-alike to a young Liz
Taylor, except prettier) is the effectively sinister vampire queen who
is looking for a successor.

It's a lot of late night horror movie
fun, the kind the "live monster" hosts like Elvira and Vampira used to
show. You can't help but love the stilted, translated dialog done in
laughably out-of-synch dubbing, endless fighting scenes (the kind where
people fall down even when a punch misses them by ten feet), a slowly
unravelling master plot, and cheap special effects. This is a "must see"
for fans of campy horror films.
